These days, Ted Nugent may be best known for his conservative activism, but in his heyday, the Motor City Madman was renowned for his cheeky innuendo and high-energy performances. Born in Detroit in '48, The Nuge made his name as a legendary guitar shredder with The Amboy Dukes and Damn Yankees, as well as carving out an enduring solo career, selling more than 30 million records. An avid outdoorsman, he has written books, starred in multiple television series, runs a summer camp and sells Nugent-branded items including hunting equipment and Nuge Java, his own brand of coffee.
